The CEO, Tim Collins was actually quite good, however has a number of executives without a clue. There is an onsite cafeteria if you value such a thing, which is subsidized- but serves subsidized quality food.

Cons

There are countless reviews here about EBSCO not not being a place for growth, along with a poor pay scale. This company is perfectly content with bringing folks onboard at Alabama Equateable payscales and providing the menial 2-5% salary adjustment each year.The company has adopted every single methodology known to mankind, and cannot apply a single one of them. Agile, Lean, SAFe, whatever. Please search for the Dilbert comic "Scrumbag" for an accurate portrayal of EBSCO meetings and their department of redundancy department.

Some positions do require extensive travel. We aim to be sure those requirements are communicated during the interview process as we realize that a career filled with a lot of travel isn't the right choice for everyone.... MoreLess

Nice work/life balanceGood benefitsBig focus on efficiency and continuous improvementProcesses kept efficient and useful as possibleVery mature and open managementFlexible hours and work-from-home time

The benefits are some of the best around. Fairly easy to get a job, don't necessarily need a college degree.

Cons

Pay is way under market value. Sometimes they are so ruled by procedure that they stop treating you like people, and think of you as numbers and assets. Almost constant procedure and methodology changes makes it difficult for employees to learn something and get to stick with it.
